I just got finished installing a set of RK's, 12 inch eye to eye on my 1200 custom and wow what a difference. Rides like a caddy and no more spine jarring jolt's. And with the 12 inch it did not change much the set-up of the bike.

I am going to unscrew the stock valve with the hose coming out of it and either plug it since I will only ride solo on the Iron and run zero pressure, or get a regular air fill valve to screw in and be able to connect to my hand pump. Have you heard of others doing that or do they run the HD setup with the little air lines coming to a single fill valve?
